CONFIGURING THE REMOTE

7.Once the punch-through is programmed, the transport buttons of the second device named will be used when those buttons are pressed while the master device is in use.

Returning the Transport Control Settings to Default Operation:

If you wish to remove the Transport Punch-Through so that the transport commands are returned to the fac- tory default setting, follow the steps shown above, except that in Steps 4 and 5, select the same device for both the DEVICE IN USE on the left side of the bottom line and the PUNCH-THROUGHdevice.

EzSet Configuration

Harman Kardon’s patented EzSet feature makes it easier than ever to calibrate the output levels on your new DPR for maximum playback accuracy. In addition to automatically setting the levels, the DPR remote’s LCD display allows the unit to be used as a direct read-out SPL meter. Complete instructions for using the EzSet features of the DPR remote are found on pages 22 and 23 of this owner’s manual.

In most cases you will find it easier to access the EzSet capabilities directly by pressing the SPL Select

Button and following the menu prompts as detailed in pages 22 and 23. However, there is one function of the remote that is only available through the remote’s menu system being described in this section.

To avoid having the calibration settings created with EzSet changed accidentally, the remote allows you to

disable the SPL Select Button on the remote. To de-activate the button, follow these steps:

1.Press and hold the Program Button O for about three seconds while the message shown in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s LCD Information Display 2. Release the button when the red light under the Set Button F appears.

2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 16), will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button F will remain illuminated in red. Press the

/ ¤ Navigation Buttons n until SET SPKR LEVELS appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 64. Press the Set Button F to enter the main EzSet menu branch.

4. Within five seconds, press the Set Button F to

disable the SPL Select Button . Once the Set Button F is pressed the word EXITING will flash four times in the lower line of the LCD display and then it will return to normal operation.

Once these steps are completed, when the SPL

Select Button is pressed the remote will show EZSET DISABLE and it will not be activated.

To restore the EzSet feature to normal operation, repeat the procedure outlined above, except that in step #3 you should press the / ¤ Navigation Buttons n so that EZSET ENABLE appears in the lower line of the LCD display. When that display appears, press the Set Button F and the EzSet feature will be reactivated. You may then press the Clear Button 9 to exit the remote’s menu system and return to normal operation or press the Set Button F again to immediately use the EzSet feature to calibrate the system as shown on pages 22 and 23.

Renaming

While the names given to the buttons and inputs on the DPR represent recognizable categories of audio/ video products, system operation may be easier if the displays shown in the remote’s LCD screen are cus- tomized to reflect the specific characteristics of a play- back source’s brand name or the new function given to a specific button when one remote’s controls are programmed into the DPR remote. The DPR remote allows you to change the name of either a master device or any button on the remote using the following steps.

Renaming a Device

To rename a specific device/input source button, fol- low these steps. For this example, we will show you how to rename the Device/Input Selector normally shown as “TV” to “HDTV TUNER.”

1.Press and hold the Program Button O for about three seconds while the message shown in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s LCD Information Display 2. Release the button when the red light under the Set Button F appears.

2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure 16), will appear in the LCD display and the Set Button

Fwill remain illuminated in red. Press the

/ ¤ Navigation Buttons n until RENAME appears on the bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in Figure 66.

5.At the next menu screen you will see the device name on the bottom line of the display with a blinking cursor box to the right of the device name. Press the Navigation Button n to return the blinking cursor to the far left side of the display line. You may then retitle the device name as shown in the next step.

6.To enter the new name, press the Numeric Keys A. The letters above the numbered buttons indicate which letter or symbol will appear when the button is pressed during the renaming process. The first press of the button will enter the first letter shown, subsequent presses of the same button will change the display to the other letters above that numbered key. For example, since the first letter we need to rename the input to HDTV Tuner is an “H”, you would locate the “H” above the “4” button, and press the button twice. The first press shows a “G,” the second press changes it to an “H.” Consult the table at the end of this section to see which characters pressing a particular button generates.

7.After you enter the first letter of the new device name, there are three options for entering the next character:

a.To enter a letter that requires a different numeric key to be pressed, simply press that button. The cursor will automatically move to the next position and the first letter accessed
